Intermittent clashes broke out between student protesters and law enforcement agencies in Dhaka’s Dhanmondi 32 area on Monday night, continuing from around 8:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. Witnesses said police fired sound grenades near Anwar Khan Modern Medical College Hospital as demonstrators advanced toward Dhanmondi 32. The army had earlier set up a security perimeter near Russell Square, which protesters attempted to cross, prompting renewed police action including baton charges and additional sound grenades. Several police officers and bystanders were reportedly injured. The unrest caused partial traffic disruption and left the area largely deserted. The tension spread to nearby neighborhoods such as Kalabagan, Panthapath, Sukrabad, and Sobhanbagh, where movement was temporarily halted. By 10 p.m., students were still positioned near Kalabagan and Dhanmondi Lake, while police and army units remained deployed from Russell Square to Metro Shopping Mall to maintain control.
